FAQs

What models does this linkage bearing rebuild kit fit?

This kit is designed for Beta RR 125 models from the 2018 to 2024 model years.

What is included in the kit?

The kit includes needle bearings, pins, dust seals (8), needles (7), pins, flanged collars (8), and plain collars (4), providing all elements for a full OEM-quality service of your linkage.

Do I need special tools to install this kit?

While the kit provides the parts, you will likely need standard motorcycle mechanic tools, including bearing presses, sockets, wrenches, and torque wrenches. Consult your Beta service manual for specific tool recommendations.

How often should I rebuild my linkage bearings?

The frequency depends on riding conditions, but it's generally recommended to inspect and consider servicing the linkage bearings every 20-40 hours of aggressive use or annually as part of routine maintenance.

Can I use this kit to service other parts of the suspension?

No, this kit is specifically for the rear shock absorber linkage bearings. It does not include components for the fork or the shock absorber internals themselves.

What material are the pins made from?

The pins are made from 52100 High Grade Steel for strength and durability.

What are the dust seals made of?

The dust seals are made from Nitrile Butadiene, a robust material suitable for sealing out contaminants.

Troubleshooting

Stiff or binding suspension after installation

Verify that all bearings and pins are correctly aligned and not binding. Ensure collars are properly seated and that no debris was trapped during installation. Check that all fasteners are torqued to specification.

Premature wear on new components

Confirm that the correct type and amount of grease were used. Ensure the linkage was properly cleaned before installation and that no grit or dirt contaminated the new parts. Check for any misalignment in the suspension components that could cause excessive friction.

Kit components do not fit correctly

Double-check that you have the correct kit for your specific Beta RR 125 model year (2018-2024). Verify that you are attempting to install the correct part from the kit in its intended location.
